Join the fun on Lynx Creek AZ while we test run a wash plant on a historically rich placer creek in northern Arizona, right in my front yard! What's that, a cleanup with a Trinity Pan?!

  • Hello All! Figured I better look at my Youtube account. I see so many responses! This was a fun project. I found over a pound of gold all told on this small 120' section of old stream bed. I am an excavation contractor so the equipment was mine. I also had permission from the local water rights holder to use stream water. This wash plant could use a little more water but the 5hp pump did well. This was a home made unit I picked up and refurbished. It is now on the Klamath @ Happy Camp!

  • that was a great video, but do your self a favor and screen the cons left over and use a blue bowl later on when you have time and you can recover more!!!

  • We did keep the cons and it was surprizingly clean. This whole plant runs on a 5hp pump!Thanks for the recommendation.

  • congrats! how long did it take to get that half ounce and whats it worth?

  • This was a 2 hour first time run. I am trying to take this video and reproduce it for better video. Also will have more video-less music. Stay tuned. This is my first Youtube video!

see all

  • This machine is awesome ! The idjits on the discovery channel need to run three of these smaller unit's and they would be making money not losing it out the discharge.

  • cool vid! wish we had gold here in kansas!!

  • I like how hippies like redman840 tell u to put it the way mother earth made it but live in a house sit in a chair & store there clothes with mother earth there so full a shit , Nice wash plant

  • Redman840 are u still around

  • How much did it cost, backhoe, equiptment etc. to find 1/2 ounce of gold. Did you make a profit?

  • Nice video.I would like to think when you finish ripping the land apart for such a small yield of gold that you would put EVERYTHING back as you found it,just as Mother Nature would like to see it done.

  • I also would like to know where to get one like that... got a lot of gold bearing material around my claim and it would be great to run one of those around here..

  • how much did all that equipment cost (excluding the back hoe)?

  • Can you tell us where one can locate a wash plant like this?
